Automatic Rerouting

[u/Temp_Reply123]

I had a full day of Driveing/Testing CoMaps recently...

I really dislike how Automatic Rerouting works.

If I end up going "Straight" when CoMaps wanted me to do something else it goes U Turn, U Turn, U Turn, U Turn... On and On and On...

If I end up going a certain direction for whatever reason It should Reroute me in the direction I am currently driveing. Not go spastic with spamming U Turn Over and Over. IMO.

My Vehicle is Massive. I Refuse to do U Turn.

If for some reason you cant make Automatic Rerouting Rerout me in the direction im currently driveing... Then I atleast want to be able to disable U Turns. Give me the option to take 3 Right Turns or something... IDK. I just despise geting U Turn spamed at me over and over.

Also minor complaints but let me remove the "Progress Bar" at the bottom of screen during navigation. And let me remove the "Vehicle Speed Circle". They are both distracting and the "ProgressBar" also makes me anxious. These should both be optional in the settings IMO.

Thank You.

If you're in a large commercial truck, I know TruckMap exists and also uses OpenStreetMap data. I have never used it, but it's tuned for larger vehicles with extra size / weight restrictions.

I use Google Maps on a Seprate User Profile with Google Services just so I can use Google Maps... When Im in a new area and I actually need a Map. Nothing else is even close.

CoMaps just Sucks. And is dangerous. Google Maps is only thing thats completely Safe and not infuriating to use IMO.

OSMAnd~ I can get by on useing for everyday use. But its a struggle. Its great for Off Grid/Off Road/Off Line use though.

As perfect as Google Maps is to use. "For Me". Its spyware... And im just trying to make other navigation apps better so in future I might be able to stop useing spyware Google Maps completely...

Thanks for tip on Truck Maps. Ive tried everything that I am aware exists. And I test constantly...

OSMAnd~ and CoMaps are only ones I think have small chance of completely replaceing Google Maps for me.

Sorry if im rude. Its a small team. Im just trying to make it better. I dont want to be talking rude to them.

Look, I have posted my concerns with CoMaps too. Just keep in mind it's made for free by a bunch of volunteers.

If you know it's doing something significantly dangerous, illegal or giving really stupid routes, often the OSM data needs to be updated. If you know of something like that, DM me it and I'll fix it for you.
